Students' opinions on the usage of online learning

Interaction and communication play the main point of online learning. These two factors directly affect students' cooperation in online learning. These factors also affect students' acceptance and usage of online learning. However, what are students' opinions on online learning in terms of interaction, communication, and cooperation during the online learning session? This research question is important because of its influences towards the role of the lecturer during online learning sessions. Quantitative method was used to collect the data through a survey in the form of a questionnaire aims to answer the research questions. The questionnaire was administered to 15 students every time after six (6) learning sessions they followed. Descriptive analysis of the questionnaire shows that the students have a positive opinion towards online learning in terms of interaction, communication, and cooperation. Whereas, the result using “Repeated Measure ANOVA” discovered that there is no significant difference on students' opinions.
